We meet every other month on the 4th Thursday from 3:30 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. Our meetings are called "Take a Break & Learn". Our main purpose is to be a partner in helping to improve the quality of life of residents and to give their families a voice in decisions that affect their loved ones. We communicate through the home newsletter online, advocate with governments and other stakeholders, promote the Council with posters, pamphlets and a bulletin board in the home. We mentor new families, offer support, provide educational presentations and also conduct small fundraising activities. Finally, our Co-Chairs have quarterly meetings with the Administration to bring concerns forward, receive information for Council members and to assist where appropriate. The Administrator gives an update at every Council meeting.
